Learning Disciplines & Devotions

Disciplines

In Clan Disciplines

In-Clan Disciplines (including Bloodline) require no teacher.

Out-of-Clan Disciplines

(-not- including Clan 'signature') can be 'activated' by a character without a teacher. Each month, the player may roll Blood Potency; once they attain successes equal to twice the total 'dot' level of the Discipline being activated, they may develop/purchase it. The player MUST have the XP required to purchase it before they can begin rolling, and it remains 'in escrow' until the Discipline development is completed. Having a teacher skips this requirement.

Clan 'Signature' Disciplines

Learning a Clan's signature Discipline always requires a character teacher.

Clan 'Signatures' : Auspex, Dominate, Majesty, Nightmare, and Protean must be learned in-game from a teacher if the character is not a member of the Clan. They cannot be taken at creation and 'backstoried'.

Clan 'Signatures' : Auspex, Dominate, Majesty, Nightmare, and Protean can only be taught by that Clan's respective members. Such Disciplines gained through a Bloodline are not teachable.

Bloodline Disciplines

Bloodline Specific Disciplines cannot be taught to non-bloodline members unless the text specifically states otherwise.

Devotions

Devotions may be developed by a character without a teacher. Each month, the player may roll Int+Occult*; once they attain successes equal to twice the total 'dot' requirement of the Devotion, they may develop/purchase it. The player MUST have the XP required to purchase it before they can begin rolling, and it remains 'in escrow' until the Devotion is completed. Having a teacher skips this requirement.
